The Potteries are a fair distance from the Forest - some 120 miles ( Ok not as far as Australia !!! )

The area is famous for ceramics with names like Wedgewood, Spode and Minton.

The Potteries also has a major Coalfield and a number of families moved between the FoD and Staffordshire. http://www.staffspasttrack.org.uk/exhibit/coal/historical%20overview/historicaloverview...
